A45162	Ultimas manus being letters between Mr. John Humphrey, and Mr. Samuel Clark, in reference to the point of justification : written upon the occasion of Mr. Clark's printing his book upon that subject, after Mr. Humfrey's book entituled The righteousness of God, and published for vindication of that doctrine wherein they agree, as found, by shewing the difference of it from that of the Papist, and the mistakes of our common Protestant : in order to an impartial and more full understanding of that great article, by the improvement of that whereto they have attained, or correction of any thing wherein they err, by better judgments : together with animadversions on some late papers between Presbyterian and Independent, in order to reconcile the difference, and fix the Doctrine of Christ's satisfaction.	Humfrey, John, 1621-1719.	1698 (1698)	Wing H3715; ESTC R16520	84,030	95

my_o pacification_n pag._n 40._o which_o book_n i_o expect_v to_o have_v be_v answer_v by_o he_o or_o the_o truth_n as_o to_o what_o concern_v he_o acknowledge_v before_o this_o the_o last_o thing_n

as_o himself_o account_v that_o we_o be_v justify_v it_o be_v by_o the_o gospel_n we_o must_v be_v judge_v for_o to_o be_v judge_v be_v either_o to_o be_v justify_v or_o condemn_v and_o according_o it_o be_v not_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n which_o answer_v the_o law_n that_o the_o gospel_n provide_v for_o we_o but_o it_o be_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n that_o be_v manifest_v

what_o the_o gospel_n teach_v it_o be_v strange_a now_o that_o when_o this_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n which_o be_v so_o plain_a in_o both_o testament_n the_o just_a man_n shall_v

we_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o regeneration_n and_o they_o be_v out_o we_o say_v and_o be_v right_a by_o the_o other_o let_v i_o say_v this_o yet_o full_a again_o for_o when_o

by_o the_o other_o here_o you_o have_v my_o account_n of_o justification_n constitutive_a and_o hence_o you_o may_v have_v a_o account_n of_o that_o text_n which_o be_v else_o so_o hard_o in_o word_n
